Monitors....?

[miss bass]

What would you say is the best quality monitors.??
At the moment im listening to through my hi fi! I know the sound you get from it, but good monitors would be great.

I cant afford them yet though, just wanted some views.
I wouldnt be expecting to pay like a thousand pounds, just a couple hundred.

For the money you have , behringer truths aint bad , about the only good thing behringer ever made, there about £250 though.

[tekara]

alot of people dont like the fostex PM2 series for electronic music, since many hiphop people use it but i think its great.

hasnt let me down since the first day i bought it (knock on wood)

hey Miss Bass, guess who....

I know JBL have just brought out a new range

woh hello there twisted.

Heard Behringer ones were good, surprised if they don't make kitchens! They make everything don't they

[Jimfish]

Behringer ones are whack. Really whack.
After about half an hour your ears will be ringing and after about two hours you will have blown them up...

I know 3 people that went against my advice and bought a pair, 2 of them blew thiers up and one is just pissed off that he ever bought them.

I recently sold my KRK K-roks on ebay and they only went for £80!! if you can get a pair of KRK's at that price i would say dont hesitate. You'll need an amp though but a samson 260 will do fine (about £90 SH)

Ive recently moved to Fostex PM-2's and while they get a little ear-grating at very high volume (they are loud bastards though) i think they are excellent and my mixes have been coming out much cleaner since using them. For £500 you cant go wrong.

On a budget id look for some second hand K-ROKs..

There is nothing else that compares at even double the price i sold the KRKs for....

yeah, i reckon a second hand pair might be the way to go for the money,
my behringers seem allright to me , allthough i only use them on my decks and use mackies for monitoring my own mixdowns so i guess i hardly listen to them that long as i`m so shit on a pair of decks i rarely last 15 minutes on mine :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

heard good things about the krks. will do well given the budget...

[DJZeMigL]

Monitors and Soundcard are the core on any up to date system DO NOT CHEAP OUT on these!!!


ADAM P11a are my babyes!!

Not very expensive 4 the quality...

Other names in the game are Genelec 1030a, Mackie HR824...

I'd go 4 my Adam's any day!!

If could afford I would have got the S range but it's a bit much for my little room!

[DJZeMigL]

I think the adam's will go for something around 1400 Euros (for the pair)!

[massplanck]

How do the Tannoy actives and M-Audio studiophiles fare out?

thanks

[DJZeMigL]

In case of doubt go for the Tannoy, M-Audio ain't all that brilliant in they're linearity or "stereoness" ;)
